Most Expensive Computer Speakers?

Despite the fact that these speakers from Bang and Olufsen are pretty damn gorgeous, and handle up to 250 watts of power, the price tag of $3200 is just ridiculous. Does anyone ever pay this sort of money for computer speakers? The fact that you could get yourself a very (very) well specc'd Mac or PC for the same amount of money must at least deter everyone except the stupidly rich.

Not saying I don't want a set if someone's going to buy them for me of course...

More details here if you're still interested.

Kohler Rain Tiles Get Special Speaker

Purely interested in this coz I have a Kohler rain tile sitting in a half finished bathroom waiting to be installed (pics when I finally get it in there - I'm guessing/hoping 2 weeks from now).

Anyway, Polk have released shower tile like speakers that u can embed in thewall, just to improve your whole showering experience (or add to the local drought issues by getting caught up in a few good tunes and never coming out of there). Luckily, these came out after we tiled everywhere, so there's no chance of me sinking more money into more electronics for another room that I'll use for 5 minutes a day if that. They do look nice though 8-) More details from Gizmodo if you're interested.
